Settle in for a soulful, country/classic rock debut track from Kiefer Bahrich, ‘That’s Alright’!
The young emerging Canadian singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Kiefer Bahrich bares his heart and soul on ‘That’s Alright’, a track that evokes 60s/70s classic rock nostalgia. Stirring bluesy guitar harmonies, classic swing rock rhythms, and Kiefer’s honest, poetic vocals make for a compelling, memorable track that inspires a beautiful, peaceful hope!
The title track to his debut EP, ”That’s Alright’ opens cinematically, like the soundtrack to the start of a hero’s journey, inspiring and intriguing. Bluesy guitar slides and a driving rhythm set up beautifully for the opening verse.
Kiefer’s raw, uniquely toned vocals paired with honest-to-earth, country lyrics have you happily invested. The song’s unconventional structure and leaning into the title’s ‘that’s alright’ uplifting effect, wittily comparing it to a desert sunset, roots the song in your mind. Each verse has him describing his adventures, overcoming challenges of moving out of a small, dead-end town, falling in and out of love, losing himself and finding purpose on the way. But in the end he always finds time to appreciate the small and beautiful things in his life, like a desert sunset, and he emphasizes, ‘That’s Alright’!
There’s something beautifully nostalgic yet also refreshingly original about Keifer’s songwriting. Raised with a natural talent for music and being exposed to the likes of The Eagles, Bob Dylan & The Beatles at a young age have definitely contributed to his confidence and composure as a performer. As a skilled multi-instrumentalist, he handles every musical element with grace and enthusiasm.
‘That’s Alright’ is a delightful introduction to this young artist, Kiefer Bahrich, who radiates an optimistic, effervescent vibe that you can’t get enough of.
